got this piece from liveaquaria.com. it never did resemble the beautiful coral in the picture on their website.
29g biocube HQI. i acclimated it slowly over a period of several weeks to the MH lights. it is on the sand bed, medium flow. water params are all good. i don't add any supplements, i do regular water changes (usually about 15% every week to 10 days) so i figured any trace elements are being replenished.
it's growing, has almost completely covered the rock but rather than the pretty purple color, it's very pale and rather than distinct polyps, it just looks "fuzzy". what am i doing wrong and how do i fix it?
